Roy Horton Has a Solid AX ride in Fort Wayne, IN

1/23/2009

 

 

I raced at the Fort Wayne, Indiana Arenacross last weekend and it went much better then Chicago event the week prior. 

 

Friday Night

I won both of my heats races and got a 3rd in Lites main event and a 4th in the 450 main event after a small tip over.

 

Saturday Night

Saturday went a little better.   I won both of my heats again, and I finally got a descent start to a main event!    I passed for the lead early in the race and went on to win the Lites main event!

 

In the 450 class I also got out of the hole ok.   I started 4th and got into 2nd pretty fast.  I pulled up to the leader about 6 laps in but I had to back off the gas because I got a rear flat tire.  I decided to ride around and do the best I could with it.  At the end of the race I finished 4th.

 

I was a little disappointed because that extra 700 dollars would have been nice! Overall though it was a good weekend no stuffing, no confrontations and just had good fun racing.

Roy Horton Completes Weekend Racing Prior To Grand Rapids with a Second

1/2/2009

 

 

Roy Horton continued his AX warm up racing Saturday and Sunday after his Friday night debut.

 

“It was a 3 race deal with any overall points system with payouts to the top 10 overall. Saturday night I performed well.  I didn't get a great start, but I just kept riding and with a little help from the leader Lichtle… going down half way through the race, I ended up finishing 2nd on Saturday.

 

The 3rd day of racing, was ok.  I won my heat, but just didn't feel relaxed all day and I was pumping up.  I think I was just beginning to wear down over the weekend.

 

In the main I got a good start.  I was 2nd and just had nothing for Travis Sewell in the main event.  I rode around to a 2nd.

 

In the dash for cash I pulled the holeshot and lead the first 8 laps then lost the front wheel in a turn. It was a good weekend and I had fun!  I didn't run into anyone : ) and got 2nd for the weekend so I made a good chunk of change for 3 days work, which was very much needed.

 

We’ll see you at Grand Rapids…

 

Roy
